Help my cat lose 2 lbs (read all 3 entries…)
well, 4 years ago

Tigger’s eating nothing but high quality, diet catfood and the occasional green bean (oh, he loves his green beans!) but since he sleeps 18 hours a day on the big, comfy wool blanket I don’t think weight loss is imminent.

In fact, when he sits there he looks like an emperor penguin. You know how they sandwich the egg between their little roll of belly fat and their feet? Yesterday, the husband used a ping pong ball in place of an egg and it worked. Now that’s disturbing. Tigger just sat there looking mildly puzzled.

That's funny!

An emperor kitty? I wanted to cheer the picture of your cat. Sooo cute!

:)

Tigger says thank you!

What's high quality?

I don’t mean this flippantly at all. But I have reacently learned the hard way that what I thought was high quality may not be nutritionally good – a lot of dry food is too high in carbohydrates, including WEIGHT CONTROL formulas. Since when are carbs good for dieting, and good for cats in general?

If you want to see why I am slightly agitated about this, see my current goals for a quick answer.

If you tell me what brand and if it’s wet/dry you are feeding I can give you some info on it’s protein/fat/carbo ratios that I’ve found.
